HIV/ AIDS was a serious problem that was faced not just by the Magadi community but by the whole country. This company is not just the largest soda ash firm but also one of the oldest private firms which is over a century old. Soda Ash is made from Trona that is obtained from Lake Magadi. Soda ash is an important component for manufacturing a lot of consumer goods like glass‚ detergents‚ and various chemicals. Soda ash is also used widely in the manufacturing of many such varied products as pharmaceuticals

st industrial sector of Wyoming’s economy. Coal : Wyoming is the nation’s leading coal producer. The nation’s top 10 coal mines are situated here and has the world’s largest surface coal mining operations near Gillette. In 1868 the Union pacific railroad opened the first coal mine in carbon county. It was named Carbon county because extensive coal deposits were found there. Most of Wyoming’s coal mines are found in the powder river basin. There has been some disasters in the coal mines too.

production of glass and then as an ingredient in medicines and breads by the Romans (1). Today‚ the majority of the world’s soda ash comes from trona ore‚ which is mostly found in the Green River Basin‚ formerly known as the Gosiute Lake‚ located in southwest Wyoming. The Green River basin is actually a prehistoric alkaline lakebed that supplies this vast amount of trona ore (1). With glass manufacturing being the largest application of soda ash‚ it serves very high importance in the production of containers

It’s simple‚ basic and cheap. Baking soda is simply sodium bicarbonate‚ a substance found naturally in mineral deposits‚ oceans and lake sediments as trona ore. Sodium bicarbonate is also manufactured in the human body‚ where it helps to maintain the correct pH of the blood stream‚ neutralizes stomach acids and plaque acids‚ and carries carbon dioxide from bodily tissue to the lungs. Baking soda is a white crystalline powder (NaHCO3) better known to chemists as sodium bicarbonate‚ bicarbonate

WYOMING History and Important People For many years the Wyoming region was divided into two parts. The section west of the Continental Divide was part of three territories first Oregon‚ then Utah and Idaho. Eastern Wyoming was included in Nebraska and Dakota. Finally‚ in 1868‚ these sections were united into Wyoming Territory. The following year legislature granted that woman had the right vote and the right to hold office the first such legal recognition in the United States. In 1924 Wyoming elected

40 Common Minerals and Their Uses Aluminum The most abundant metal element in Earth’s crust. Aluminum originates as an oxide called alumina. Bauxite ore is the main source of aluminum and must be imported from Jamaica‚ Guinea‚ Brazil‚ Guyana‚ etc. Used in transportation (automobiles)‚ packaging‚ building/construction‚ electrical‚ machinery and other uses. The U.S. was 100 percent import reliant for its aluminum in 2012. Barium A heavy metal contained in barite. Used as a heavy additive in oil

soluble in water but its solubility decreases slightly as the temperature increases above 35.4○C or 95.7○F. It is used in many different fields such as manufacturing‚ at home or in industries. It can be produced either synthetically or naturally. Trona‚ a mineral that can be found in evaporated lake beds‚ is a common natural source of production. It can also be found in some salt waters. It is also a safe substance that can be handled without extraordinary precautions but when extracting this in
